We were going on a driving trip, leaving early Easter morning so rather than having the kids take their baskets (and possibly damaging them or just making a mess) I made these bags at the last minute. (As in, the night before - before going to bed!) These bags had a big, round Gerber baby sticker on them so I simply measured the diameter of the sticker and used my Martha Stewart large circle cutter and cut a circle from patterned paper the same size so I could cover the sticker. I used a cricut holiday cake cartridge to cut the bunny from brown paper (mmm... chocolate bunny!) and the greeting from glitter paper. A pink shade for my daughter's and blue for my son's since their baskets tend to be a bit different (my son prefers white chocolate, for one).Not the most flattering pic but hey, I was about to get in bed! LOL

Good job Tam! I was looking around the house for something to use instead of baskets, blank bags would have been perfect. I think I'll get some from Michaels to keep on hand - then they can be decorated for any occasion. Thanks for the inspiration.
